What a mistake the Supreme Court made when they selected the wrong guy. We would’ve heard something about it from a President Gore.

No - those contracts, if awarded by then, will stay in place and not be modified. <br /><br />Another reason I liked Colin Powell -<br /><br />Okay - I'll introduce another name that is anathema to many here - but I heard this from the source, not a commentator's blog. Sen Kerry was on O'Reilly a few months back, was discussing Middle East and oil. O'Reilly said "you (Congress and the Executive) have blown it for 30 years, going back to Carter, with no policy for energy independence from the Middle East. Why do any of you guys deserve to get voted back in?" Sen Kerry said, if effect, "you're right."<br /><br />So nothing meaningful from this administration about energy independence - and I'll wager, if the 100-hour agenda is an indicator, we'll hear nothing from this Congress. Or the next President, Democrat or Republican. And anyone thinks it will be any different if the Democratic candidate for President wins?

The current Thuggerment....oops, I meant Government seems hell bent on throwing away the lives of its soldiers for oil and trying to call it some kind of fight for democracy.
